Homework 12
(Due on April 13, 2016 before class)
1. A fluid flows between two parallel plates as shown in the figure. At an location, the
laminar flow velocity profile () is found to be governed by the following equation and
boundary conditions.

The temperature at this location is found to be
2 2
() = 2 (( ) 1),

where is the surface temperature at this location. The valudes of the constants 1 and 2
are unknown. Assume constant properties (including density), and find = / at this
location. (Hint: your answer should be a constant value.)

2. The following questions in the textbook

19-75
19-76
19-80
19-85 (assume the bulk mean temperature for air to be 75)
19-88
